Man, I usually don't comment on things like this but that is a screaming deal if it is for real. Plus the brakes alone can be resold (here) for $125 easily...if you prefer shimano or some other

Looks kind of rough... scratches down the forks and seat stays... still, I'd like it if Chevron doesn't buy it.

hi, just asking, not that this is my size (it's too small), but isn't the Ottrott model one of the best frames ever made? Is it the one that Bicycling Magazine wrote glowingly about about 10 years ago...combined carbon and titanium? just asking. i recall the words "magic carpet ride" being used.

now, i ask you, who wouldn't want to buy a "magic carpet ride" bike!

just curious.

You're right. I have the Ottrott's little sister, a Fierte IT mixed Ti and Carbon and wouldn't change it for anything... well maybe for an Ottrott :)

Plus everybody here that has ridden one have nothing but great things to say about them.
